Facing Death and Change - To Know and Conquer - Bertrand Russell #courage #philosophy #quotesAdded:
To take into the inmost shrine of the soul, the irresistible forces whose puppets we seem to be, death and change, the irrevocableness of the past, and the powerlessness of man before the blind hurry of the universe from vanity to vanity.
To feel these things and know them is to conquer them.
Bertrand Russell
